HAZARD AVOIDANCE
ZOOM RANGE ON THE NAVIGATION MAP
Lightning detection system information can be displayed up to 800 nm zoom range (in North up mode) on
the Navigation Map Page. However, in the track up mode at the 500 nm range, a portion of the lightning
data can be behind the aircraft and therefore not visible on the Navigation Map. Since the range for the
lightning detection system is 400 nm diameter total (200 nm in front and 200 nm behind), the 500 nm range
in North up mode shows all the data.
At a map range of less than 25 nm, lightning symbols do not appear on the maps, even if lightning is
detected. The presence of lightning information is indicated by the annunciation 'LTNG < 25 nm' in the
upper right corner of the Navigation Map Page (Figure 6-121).
Selecting a Stormscope range on the Navigation Map:
1) Press the MENU Key.
2) Select 'MAP SETUP'.
3) Select the 'Weather' group.
4) Press the ENT Key.
5) Turn the large FMS Knob to select 'STRMSCP SMBL'.
6) Turn the small FMS Knob to select the maximum display range.
7) Press the ENT Key.
8) Press the FMS Knob to return to the Navigation Map Page.
